Animal Crossing's Unexpected New Remaster Is A Hit With Gamers

2002 was quite a long time ago. In gaming terms, we've seen more than twenty Call of Duty games come to fruition and back then, we truly believed the next great Duke Nukem game was almost upon us...little did we know! It was also the year that we saw one of the greatest cozy games release on Nintendo's funky little GameCube. As an update to the Japan-only Dobutsu no Mori for the Nintendo 64, Animal Crossing on the GameCube was not exactly the first in the franchise, but it launched the franchise into the global stratosphere.
